ZEONEX® , with
its excellent optical properties, is used for such products
as lenses for laser printers and optical elements of
cameras. It is also applied to medical applications
that take advantage of its low impurity property, as
well as to electric insulating components that require
low dielectric constant and dielectric tangent.

Major properties
| (1) Low water absorbency >>
|
Lowest water absorbency of all
plastics (0.01% or less). Exhibits excellent dimensional
stability even under high humidity conditions and
excels in precision molding since it does not bend
or deform. |
| (2) High transparency >>
|
Total light transmittance is
92% with excellent transparency, especially ZEONEX330R,
which excels in transparency at vicinity of 400
nm. |
| (3) Low specific gravity >>
|
Specific gravity of 1.01. ZEONEX330R
features specific gravity of 0.95, lighter
than other conventional plastics. |
| (4) High heat resistance >>
|
Over 120C of Heat distortion temperature under the load. (except 330R.)
Especially ZEONEX F52R shows stable optical properties under wide temperature range. |
|
|
Superior to thermoplastic resin
properties, especially in high frequencies. |
(6) Low impurity >>
|
very clean with extremely few
impurities, suitable for medical equipments. |
| (7) Precise optical properties >>
|
Stability in refractive index,
most suitable for optical components. |
